Boobs. Tits. Hooters. Knockers. Jugs. Breasts. We celebrate them;
we revile them. They nourish us; they kill us. And regardless of
what we call them, breasts have fascinated us since prehistoric
times. This A-to-Z encyclopedia explores the historical magnitude
and cultural significance of the breast over time and around the
world. A team of international scholars from various disciplines
provide key insights and information about the breast in art,
history, fashion, social movements, medicine, sexuality, and more.
Entries discuss depictions of breasts on ancient figurines, in
Renaissance paintings, and in present day advertisements. They
examine how fashion has emphasized or de-emphasized the breast at
various times. They tackle medical issues such as breast
augmentation and breast cancer and controversies over
breastfeeding. The breast as sexual object and even a site of
smuggling are also covered. As a whole, the Cultural Encyclopedia
of the Breast takes an engaging and accessible look at this notable
body part."
